'''KAYU-TV''' (channel 28) is a [[television station]] in [[Spokane, Washington]], United States, affiliated with the [[Fox Broadcasting Company|Fox]] network. Owned by [[INSP (TV network)|Imagicomm Communications]], the station has studios on South Regal Street in Spokane, and its transmitter is on [[Krell Hill]] southeast of the city.

==History==
After beating out [[Springfield Television]] for the construction permit in 1981,<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74820728/|title=Public Notice|date=April 4, 1981|page=20|work=The Spokesman-Review|accessdate=March 31, 2021}}</ref> Spokane native Robert Hamacher, a former employee of [[KREM (TV)|KREM-TV]] and later an executive at [[KSTW]] in [[Tacoma, Washington|Tacoma]],<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74821118/|work=Spokane Daily Chronicle|page=5|date=August 27, 1982|title=Ceremony starts work for new station|accessdate=March 31, 2021}}</ref> put KAYU on the air on October 31, 1982. The first program to air was an episode of ''[[Rawhide (TV series)|Rawhide]]''.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74821773/|title=KAYU broadcasting|page=6|work=Spokane Chronicle|date=November 1, 1982|accessdate=March 31, 2021}}</ref> It was Spokane's first [[independent station (North America)|independent station]]<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74821417/|pages=TV 5, [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74821298/ 10]|date=October 17, 1982|work=The Spokesman-Review|title=New TV station's debut this week|first=Tom|last=Sowa}}</ref> and the first new commercial station to sign on in the area since KREM-TV began broadcasting 28 years earlier. It is also the oldest non-[[Big Three television networks|Big Three]] station in the eastern part of the state. It joined Fox as a charter affiliate on October 9, 1986.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74821937/|accessdate=March 31, 2021|date=August 4, 1986|title=KAYU-TV signs up with Fox network|page=A3|work=Spokane Chronicle}}</ref>

On October 1, 1989, KAYU-TV launched two low-power [[broadcast relay station#Semi-satellites|semi-satellites]]: [[KCYU-LD|K53CY]] in [[Yakima, Washington|Yakima]] (known on-air as "KCY") and K66BW in the [[Tri-Cities, Washington|Tri-Cities]] (branded as "KBW"). Both stations aired most of KAYU's programming (with the exception of select programs that KAYU did not have the rights to show in those markets), though with local commercials.<ref name=sc-k53cyk66bwstart>{{cite news|last1=Murphey|first1=Michael|title=KAYU TV partnership opens stations in Yakima, Tri-Cities|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74822123/|access-date=December 19, 2015|work=[[Spokane Chronicle]]|date=October 5, 1989|page=A15}}</ref> K53CY was replaced in 1993 by K68EB, though it continued to go by "KCY" outside of [[station identification]]s.<ref name=tst-k68ebkcy>{{cite news|last1=Smith|first1=Craig|title=Seahawk Notebook -- 54,500 Not Enough To Lift TV Blackout|url=http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=19941118&slug=1942659|access-date=December 19, 2015|work=[[The Seattle Times]]|date=November 18, 1994|quote=The game will be carried on Fox network affiliates in Spokane (KAYU, Channel 28), Portland, (KPDX, Channel 49) and Yakima (KCY, Channel 68).}}</ref>

Hamacher's company, Salmon River Communications sold KAYU-TV, along with K68EB (which was soon renamed KCYU-LP), KBWU-LP (the former K66BW), and [[KMVU-DT|KMVU]] in [[Medford, Oregon]], to [[Northwest Broadcasting]], a company controlled by Brian Brady, in 1995.<ref name=tsr-northweststart>{{cite news|title=Michigan investor buys KAYU TV|url=http://www.spokesman.com/stories/1995/aug/02/michigan-investor-acquires-kayu-tv/|access-date=December 19, 2015|work=[[The Spokesman-Review]]|date=August 2, 1995}}</ref> KCYU and KBWU remained semi-satellites of KAYU until 1999, when full-power sister station [[KFFX-TV]] signed on from [[Pendleton, Oregon]], and became their program source.

KAYU also carried [[UPN]] as a secondary affiliation from the network's launch on January 16, 1995, to 1997 when [[KSKN]] (channel 22) became the network's new affiliate.<ref name="Fox UPN"/>

On December 17, 2019, [[Apollo Global Management]] acquired the entirety of Brian Brady's television portfolio, as part of a larger transaction that saw it also acquire [[Cox Media Group]]. While the company was initially to be known as Terrier Media, it had been announced in June 2019 that Apollo would also acquire Cox's radio and advertising businesses, and maintain the existing Cox Media Group name for the combined company. Brady holds an unspecified minority interest in the company, which gave KAYU an in-state sister station in Seattle's [[CBS]] affiliate [[KIRO-TV]].<ref name="tvnc-saletoterrier">{{cite news |last1=Jessell |first1=Harry A. |title=Cox TV Valued At $3.1 Billion In Apollo Acquisition |url=https://tvnewscheck.com/article/top-news/231448/cox-tv-valued-3-1-billion-apollo-acquisition/ |access-date=March 6, 2019 |work=TV News Check |date=March 6, 2019}}</ref><ref name="rbr-radiosaletoapollo">{{cite news |last1=Jacobson |first1=Adam |title=It's Official: Cox Radio, Gamut, CoxReps Going To Apollo |url=https://www.rbr.com/cox-media-group-radio-apollo/ |access-date=June 26, 2019 |work=Radio & Television Business Report |date=June 26, 2019}}</ref><ref>[https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/cox-enterprises-announces-close-of-cox-media-group-sale-to-affiliates-of-apollo-global-management-300976507.html "Cox Enterprises Announces Close of Cox Media Group Sale to Affiliates of Apollo Global Management"], prnewswire.com, December 17, 2019, Retrieved December 17, 2019.</ref>

On March 29, 2022, Cox Media Group announced it would sell KAYU-TV and 17 other stations to Imagicomm Communications, an affiliate of the parent company of the [[INSP (TV channel)|INSP]] cable channel, for $488 million;<ref name="coxsales2022">{{Cite web|url=https://radioinsight.com/headlines/222357/cox-breaks-up-combined-radio-tv-cluster-in-tulsa-as-part-of-twelve-market-divestiture/|title=Cox Breaks Up Combined Radio/TV Cluster In Tulsa As Part Of Twelve Market Divestiture|first=Lance|last=Venta|work=RadioInsight|date=March 30, 2022|accessdate=March 30, 2022}}</ref> the sale was completed on August 1.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.tvtechnology.com/news/cox-media-group-insp-close-deal-for-sale-of-cox-tv-stations-to-imagicomm|title=Cox Media Group, INSP Close Deal for Sale of Cox TV Stations to Imagicomm

===KAYU-DT2 (My 28 Spokane)===
KAYU-TV's 28.2 subchannel broadcasts [[MyNetworkTV]] in early prime time; the remainder of the subchannel's schedule consists of [[Antenna TV]] programming.<ref>[http://kayu.titantv.com/apg/ttv.aspx TitanTV Query for KAYU]</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=MyNetworkTV Affiliate List|url=http://www.mynetworktv.com/stations/all|website=MyNetworkTV.com|access-date=October 13, 2017}}</ref> Comcast Xfinity carries the subchannel on digital channel 115.

It originally carried [[This TV]] until March 2015, when it switched to MyNetworkTV, which was previously carried on KXLY-DT2 until October 2012 when it became an exclusive [[MeTV]] affiliate.

In November 2017, the 28.2 subchannel was upgraded to [[720p]] [[high-definition television|HD]]; it had previously been offered in [[480i]] [[4:3]] [[standard-definition television|standard definition]].<ref>[http://www.rabbitears.info/market.php?request=print_station&facility_id=58684 RabbitEars TV Query for KAYU]</ref>

KAYU-DT2 became an alternate affiliate of [[The CW]] on February 25, 2023, when it began carrying the network's coverage of [[LIV Golf]]<ref>[https://www.cwtv.com/thecw/liv-golf-how-to-watch/ LIV Golf | How To Watch Live]</ref> due to [[KSKN]] owner [[Tegna Inc.|Tegna]]'s refusal to air the controversial Saudi-owned tour on its stations.<ref>[https://deadline.com/2023/02/liv-cw-nexstar-mexico-tourney-ad-buys-stations-expectations-1235268778/ LIV On CW: Behind Nexstar's Drive To Secure TV Stations For Controversial Golf League]</ref>

==Newscasts==
{{see|KHQ-TV#News operation}}
KAYU presently broadcasts 13½ hours of locally produced newscasts each week (with 2½ hours each weekday and a half-hour each on Saturdays and Sundays).

KAYU currently broadcasts a 10 p.m. newscast produced by NBC affiliate [[KHQ-TV]] (channel 6), which airs for 35 minutes on weeknights and a half-hour on Saturdays and Sunday evenings. The station also airs a half-hour show called ''Washington's Most Wanted'', a statewide version of the former Fox series ''[[America's Most Wanted]]'', featuring profiles of wanted criminals in Washington state, hosted by [[KCPQ]] weeknight anchor David Rose and produced by KCPQ.

On April 8, 1991, KAYU began broadcasting a 10 p.m. newscast, produced by CBS affiliate KREM (channel 2) under a news share agreement. Lower-than-expected ratings caused KREM to drop out of the news share agreement in 1993, upon which KHQ-TV signed a news share agreement with KAYU.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74822713/|accessdate=March 31, 2021|date=February 28, 1993|title=Fox News: KREM-2's news team is out at 10 o'clock on KAYU-28|first=Jim|last=Kershner|work=The Spokesman-Review|page=Entertainment and Travel 1}}</ref> The KHQ-produced newscast ceased production April 14, 1995.<ref name="KXLYAuth">{{cite news|first=Jim|last=Kershner|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74823512/|title=Silver Mt. plans concerts for summer|pages=E3, [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74823551/ E5]|work=The Spokesman-Review|date=April 2, 1995|accessdate=March 31, 2021}}</ref> In 1999, KAYU began producing an in-house 10 p.m. newscast,<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74823239/|accessdate=March 31, 2021|first=Jim|last=Kershner|work=The Spokesman-Review|title=News at 10 gets company from KAYU|pages=E3, [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74823352/ F6]|date=May 23, 1999}}</ref> that ran until 2004; in its final two years, ABC affiliate [[KXLY-TV|KXLY]] assisted in content and talent.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74823676/|accessdate=March 31, 2021|date=November 10, 2002|title=ABC, Fox affiliates share news personnel|page=F3|first=Jim|last=Kershner|work=The Spokesman-Review}}</ref>

In 2004, KAYU laid off its news staff and partnered with KHQ for the second time to produce the newscast,<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/74823891/|accessdate=March 31, 2021|work=The Spokesman-Review|title=Tom Grant will teach at college|page=B2|date=June 3, 2004}}</ref> which was renamed ''Fox First at Ten''. The reduced overhead allowed the newscast to make money in its second month on air.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.nexttv.com/news/why-local-news-sharing-mood-74523|accessdate=March 31, 2021|work=Broadcasting & Cable|first=Allison|last=Romano|title=Why Local News Is in a Sharing Mood|date=August 5, 2006}}</ref> On January 5, 2015, KAYU became the second news station in Spokane to air their news from 7:00–9:00 a.m. called ''Good Day Spokane'', after KREM had debuted a morning news extension on KSKN the year before.<ref name="Good Day Spokane">{{cite web|url=http://www.myfoxspokane.com/good-day-spokane/|title=Good Day Spokane|publisher=myfoxspokane.com|date=January 4, 2015|access-date=January 4, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150105103409/http://www.myfoxspokane.com/good-day-spokane/|archive-date=January 5, 2015|url-status=dead}}</ref>

==Out-of-market coverage==
KAYU-TV is carried on [[cable television|cable]] systems in [[Calgary]] and [[Edmonton|Edmonton, Alberta]], Canada, both of which are double the size of the station's American coverage area. One result of this is that stations in Calgary and Edmonton air American shows on [[Pacific Time Zone|Pacific Time]], even though Calgary and Edmonton are both on [[Mountain Time Zone|Mountain Time]]. KAYU-TV is one of five local Spokane area television stations seen in Canada on the [[Shaw Direct]] satellite service. It can also be seen on local cable systems in eastern [[British Columbia]]. KAYU-TV is one of two Spokane-based stations that can be viewed in [[The Bahamas]] via cable, alongside KXLY-TV.<ref>{{Cite web |title=TV Channel listings {{!}} TV Guide {{!}} REVTV |url=https://www.rev.bs/tv-guide/ |access-date=August 13, 2022 |website=REV}}</ref>
